I am having two problems with xslt in dspace. One is related to the XMLUI and 
the other to the import script.
 
I recently set up an instance of dspace for a special collection that doesn't 
fit well into the dublin core schema. I created a unique metadata schema and 
altered the browse and sort indexes. I edited the messages.xml file accordingly 
and managed to get it running correctly last week. However, when I returned to 
the site this week, the UI is full of untranslated labels. For some reason, the 
UI is not processing the messages.xml file.
 
I don't know why it just stopped working. I had not touched anything related to 
dspace. The only thing I had done on the server was install python2.7 in 
parallel with the native python2.6.  I checked the permissions on the file and 
checked the syntax within it. Everything appears in order. I tried rebuilding 
dspace, but the problem persists. I also cleared the Cocoon cache. Can anyone 
recommend another area to check?
 
There is a second problem with this instance. When I tried doing a batch import 
of items the script complained about the missing dublin_core.xml files for the 
items. But I am using the custom metadata file using the format 
(metadata_[scheme].xml), so it shouldn't need it. I added a dummy DC file just 
to see what would happen. The import script reads the dublin_core.xml file and 
complains about a premature end of file. If I add metadata using my custom 
scheme does the import script still require a dublin_core.xml file? What are 
some reasons that it complains about a premature end of file?  I checked the 
file and it looks fine.
 
It's strange that both problems are related to reading xml files.
